First graders offer Thanksgiving Turkey recipes Each year, students from Mrs. Vanlandingham’s first grade class offer The Paper of Wabash County their Thanksgiving turkey recipes. Kiana Jones Buy a turkey at Walgreens. I think they are in the back of the store. They are in a white bag. Go home and get ready to cook the turkey.

Take the turkey out of the white bag and unfrost it in the microwave because if you don’t do that the turkey won’t cook that well. Put the turkey on a big tray and put garlic on it. Cook it for seven seconds in the oven. Make sure the oven is hot. The turkey is done when the timer goes off. It will be darkish-brownish color. Cut it into pieces and eat it with your family. Trinity Bever Go to Walmart to get a turkey. The turkeys are in the back of the store. They look pink. Choose one that is dead. Pay $7for it. When you get home, cut the turkey up so it won’t be too big in the pot. Put the turkey in the sink so it can get clean. Use a hose. Put the turkey into a frying pot. Don’t add anything to the pot but put a cover on it. Put the pot in the oven and cook it for 8 minutes at 5°. Check the turkey to see if it is turning a different color. You want it to be brown. Then take it out of

the oven and put it on a tray. Make French fries to go with the turkey. Have ice cream too. Be sure it’s chocolate. Eat it with your family. Gracie Dale Go to Walmart to get a Thanksgiving turkey. They are with the meat. If the turkey looks good, you just pick it. You take it up to something and they scan it. It will probably cost a bunch. Take it to your car and take it home. When you get home, take off the wrapper and you cut it up because you don’t want it to be round and fat. Squeeze the juice out of the turkey and put it in a roaster pan. Put some peppers on the turkey ‘acause it will make it sweet. Put the roaster pan out in the pool house and wait till the turkey gets warm. Plug in the roaster and put it on whatever number you want it to get hot. I think we put it on 2. It will take a while to cook. Play games and type on your brother’s laptop while you wait. Make eggs to eat with the turkey, but don’t let your brother eat them if he’s allergic. Check on the turkey after 2 minutes. If it looks good and sweet, it’s done! Have vegetables, like olives. Have your grandma bring Oreo pie, too. (Me and my brother

LOVE it!) Aden Eads Get a turkey at Walmart. They are in the meat aisle. They aren’t alive, they look like a big fat circle with legs and a little ball on the end. Get a turkey that’s big so the whole family can eat it for Thanksgiving. Take it to the black thing the moves and pay for it. I would spend $5.00. Take the turkey and put it in the back of the car and bring it home. Put salt and pepper on the turkey to make it taste better. Make sure you take the paper off before you put the salt and pepper on. Put it softly in the oven and set it for 10 minutes at 5°. Set the table up and when the oven beeps get the turkey out softly. It’s going to be darker because you cooked it. Slice pieces for your family. Then you can eat it. DONE! Emma Eviston We don’t eat turkey for Thanksgiving, so I don’t know, but I think you go to the woods to shoot a turkey. If the turkey isn’t in the woods, look behind a school. When you see a turkey, shoot it. Pick up the turkey’s tail and drag him back to your house. We’re almost home. When you get home, carve his skin off of him. Pull the feathers off of

t h e turkey. Put the feathers in a bucket. Next year when it is T h a n k s g iv i n g make a turkey for decorations out of those feathers to celebrate Thanks-giving. Clean it up with soap in a bucket. First clean the floor with the soapy water, then put the turkey on the clean spot on the floor. Rub and scrub the turkey with a couple old towels you have. Now it is ready to cook. Cook the turkey as fast as you can because it’s Thanksgiving and all kinds of people are coming to your house! Cook the turkey in a big, huge pan. Put on a little bit of pepper and salt, and some hot sauce because that will make it more hotter. (continued on page 21)

New donor dollars eligible for United Fund matching grant By Ashley Flynn The Wabash County United Fund supports 25 non-profit organizations in Wabash County, and in 2012, they touched the lives of Wabash County residents 89,000 times. The 2012 Wabash County United Fund campaign is now at 50 percent of its $300,000 goal, which began Sept. 12 with the Rotary Golf Outing kickoff and will continue through the end of the year. The money raised will support 39 programs in 2013 that coincide with the United Fund mission to impact education, income stability and health. The United Fund, a member of the Indiana Association of the United Way, is eligible to receive a $29,150 matching grant from an Eli Lily grant program. Donations from new donors or increased donations will be matched through the grant. The Paul Speicher Foundation also offered a matching grant for new funds donated from North Manchester and Urbana area residents up to $5,000. “Your United Fund investment is magnified by the investment of others, and has the power to bring about amazing change in our community. All funds raised through Wabash County United Fund stay right here in Wabash County to help you, your friends and your neighbors in their time of need,” says a United Fund press release.

Farmers may also donate by selling a portion of the crop they have delivered to grain elevators in the name of Harvest for Hunger or by making a cash donation. Tomson says “the need is greater this year than ever before. The economy has led many families that have not previously needed assistance to our facility.” The campaign was kicked off three weeks ago with a mailing of letters to farmers, primarily in the northern half of the county. Glen Jones, FFA advisor, reports “We have already received many positive responses to this mailing. With the harvest season proceeding rapidly this fall and excellent prices, we have already received over $7,000. The FFA chapter not only supports this program by the

Lehman encourages community to support 85 Hope

Dear editor, This Thanksgiving I am counting my blessings. My loving husband passed away three years

ago; he was my sole supporter. I found myself with no income and no insurance. Family and friends took me in

and cared for me; God bless them. The 85 Hope clinic started in January of this year, and I was fortunate to be accepted

as a patient. I was having pain in my left chest. Dr. Rose Wenrich ordered a mammogram, and a lump was found. More tests were ordered, and I was diagnosed with a second stage evasive lobular breast cancer. On March 19, I had a left breast mastectomy and sentinel lymph node removal. I chose to have my surgery done in Wabash. I was treated by surgeon Dr. Sparks and his wonderful staff and the staff of Wabash County Hospital, who made me feel like family. I am now in remission and will be taking treatments for five years before I can say, “I am a survivor!” Again, family and friends are supporting me financially and mentally; I am very blessed to have such a great support group. It isn’t easy to go through this with

me. I want to thank all of them for being there for me through all the ups and downs. I am especially thankful for all those who started and support 85 Hope. Without 85 Hope, who knows how long I may have lived. I am a mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and friend. Now I have a chance to stay in my loved ones lives. If anyone wants to donate to a Wabash based worthy cause, 85 Hope needs donations. They give hope and medical care to people who aren’t fortu-

nate enough to have insurance. They gave me my life, and I can’t thank them enough. The only

thing I can do is encourage those who can to contribute to Hope 85.

Smith recommends new bypass Dear editor, A few days ago, a friend drove in front of a Norfolk-Southern freight train with the lights flashing for some unknown reason or distraction and was killed. We are sorry that it happened, but everything had been done to prevent it, so it was his responsibility to stop. State Road 13 and 15 and city streets were blocked off for hours, with semi-trucks and automobiles penned in without any way to get out of the line. All emergency personnel were unable to respond to other needs. This could have been a deadly situation, but thank God nothing else happened, but if it had, the city would have

been helpless to meet the needs. The City of Wabash desperately needs State Road 115 just west of the city extended under the Norfolk-Souther n Railroad and over the Wabash River for a mile or so to the south side of the city to intersect with State Roads 13 and 15 creating a bypass that would prevent such a dangerous situation in the future. Big trucks have to make square turns downtown, rip up streets daily and slow up traffic, which could all be eliminated if the proposed bypass were built. Anything you can do or say to promote this would be greatly appreciated. Ben Smith Wabash

Zimmerman Celebrates 3 years; North Manchester American looks forward to Seminar Series Legion Post #286 cancels breakfast fundraisers until January

N a t h a n Zimmerman, a graduate of Wabash High School and current financial advisor with Waddell & Reed, recently celebrated his 3-year anniversary in the financial services industry. Zimmerman graduated from Indiana U n i v e r s i t y Bloomington and after a brief internship with Wachovia Securities joined Waddell & Reed, Inc. Waddell & Reed is a financial services company based out of Overland Park, Kan., with more than 200

registered offices nationwide. Over the past three years Zimmerman has been working with individuals and small business owners to achieve financial wellness. Zimmerman has been invited to numerous conferences for top Waddell & Reed Financial Advisors in the Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio region. Zimmerman was also invited to a Career Development Conference in Kansas City for the top new Waddell & Reed Financial

Advisors in the country. Invitations to these conferences are based on an analysis of investment, insurance, and financial planning sales generated by the advisor. Now, Zimmerman is looking to bring his focus back to Wabash. “Over the past 12 months I’ve spoken with hundreds of individuals and the consensus top concern relates to our nation’s debt and what it means for our e c o n o m y , ” Zimmerman said. “People want to know how all of the fiscal concerns may

affect them as individual investors. That is why I’ve decided to host a seminar series in Wabash geared toward addressing these concerns and helping people navigate financial obstacles and identify opportunities.” Zimmerman’s first seminar will be held Dec. 4 at the Honeywell Center and is open to the public as long as seating is available. For more information on upcoming events and how to RSVP, visit www.NathanZimmer man.wrfa.com.

Alzheimer’s Association Offers Free Support Group In Wabash

Nov. 14, 2012 —-On the second Thursday of the month from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., caregivers will meet for the Alzheimer’s Association’s support group. Facilitated by a trained leader, the group meets at Honeywell Center located at 275 W. Market Street, Crystal Room in Wabash. This Alzheimer’s Association support group meets monthly to provide caregivers with an opportunity to share their experi-

ences and receive support from others coping with Alzheimer’s disease. During the meetings, caregivers are encouraged to share information, give and receive support, and exchange coping experiences and strategies. Meetings are open to the public and facilitated by a trained professional and/or family member. “It’s important for caregivers to remember that they are not alone on their jour-

ney through dementia care giving. Support groups are a great way to meet other caregivers for advice and understanding,” said Kristi Ritchie of the Alzheimer’s Association. There is no cost or commitment for caregivers to attend. For a full listing of all of the Alzheimer’s Association Greater Indiana Chapter’s support groups, p l e a s e visit www.alz.org/ind ian.

America’s farmers can support local school district with $2,500 donation

Elementary and high schools in 26 states currently receive less state funding in the 2012-13 school year in comparison to last year’s numbers. In 35 states, school funding now stands below 2008 levels, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. But thanks to the generosity of farmers through America’s Farmers Grow CommunitiesSM, $555,000 was donated to schools nationwide in 2012. For the third consecutive year, America’s Farmers Grow Communities, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, will give eligible farmers the opportunity to win a $2,500 donation to direct to their local school or favorite nonprofit organization. With limited resources available, community donations help schools upgrade necessary equipment that contributes to a

progressive learning environment. Last year, 9 farmers directed $22,500 to help improve Indiana education through Grow Communities. “Rural schools are the heart of America, and today’s farmers are partnering with the Monsanto Fund to invest in the next generation through education,” said Deborah Patterson, the Monsanto Fund president. “Budget cuts have put a strain on rural education, but a $2,500 Grow Communities donation can help schools reach fundraising goals, purchase new technology equipment and provide support where there is a need.” Additionally, the Monsanto Fund invested $2.3 million into education this year through America’s Farmers Grow Rural EducationSM. This program gives farmers the opportunity to

EMMANUEL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL WELCOMED three new students, (front row, from left) Kayla Osborn, Kourtney Trusty and McKenzie Odman to the American Christian Honor Society in a recent induction ceremony. New members inducted join current members (back row, from left) Austin Odell, Weston Doyle, Sara Real and Koren Marsh. This is the highest honor that Emmanuel Christian School gives their students. The American Christian Honor Society is a nationally recognized honor society formed under the American Association for Christian Schools. Emmanuel is a member of Chapter 411 of the society. They set guidelines for admissions and strict qualifications. Being an honor society, the group focuses on grades. There is a minimum of a 3.0 GPA to be considered for the society. Above and beyond the grades, the American Christian Honor Society looks at the individual and their life outside of the classroom. Students are chosen for the honor based on four established criteria: academics, Christian leadership, Christian character and Christian service.

nominate a public school district in their community to compete for a grant of either $10,000 or $25,000 to enhance education in the areas of math and/or science. Now through Nov. 30, 2012, farmers can enter at www.growcommunities.com or by calling 1-877-2673332. The Monsanto Fund will select one winner at random from each of the eligible counties and announce winning farmers and recipient nonprofits in January 2013. America’s Farmers Grow Communities and Grow Rural Education highlights the important contributions farmers make every day to our society to help them positively impact their communities. This program is part of the Monsanto Fund’s overall effort to support rural America.

In the process of completing the election forms and certifying the final results of the 2012 General Election for Wabash County to the Indiana Election Division it has come to the attention of County Clerk Elaine Martin that one of the three voting machines in Waltz Township failed to post that machine’s votes to the final total. Those votes totaled 164 and did not change the outcome of any race. The Clerk, on behalf of the Wabash County Election Board, would like to assure the voters and candidates that this issue was

investigated immediately upon discovery on Nov. 14th. The situation has been rectified with all votes now tabulated. Election laws in the State of Indiana give County Clerks until Monday, Nov. 19th, at noon to review the voting process and tabulation of votes in order to allow for any additional votes that may be counted, or corrections that may be needed. During this same time period the Clerk’s office may receive absentee ballots cast by mail by the military or overseas voters, or discount any provisional ballots that may have

THE ACCESS YOUTH CENTER AND FIRST CHURCH OF GOD, Wabash worked together on a fall cleanup at the church’s campground property. The project was part of The Access CAN (community action night), a component of the youth center’s Bible study, designed to teach the importance of serving others. When the task was complete, the group enjoyed a cookout together on the property, with food provided by the church’s congregation. The next Access CAN venture will be held in November with Youth Bingo night at Miller’s Merry Manor.

Care Improvement Plus Unveils 2013 Medicare Advantage Plans

Care Improvement Plus debuted its 2013 Medicare Advantage health plan offerings in preparation for the Oct. 15 start of the Medicare Open Enrollment Period. Care Improvement Plus’ health plan solutions for Medicare beneficiaries have expanded to new service areas for 2013, and now include plans customized for beneficiaries with chronic lung disorders. Now part of the United Healthcare Medicare solutions product portfolio, Care Improvement Plus provides Medicare Advantage plans including comprehensive and specialized support for beneficiaries living with chronic lung disorders, diabetes or heart failure, as well as people with both Medicare and full Medicaid coverage. “Care Improvement Plus provides Medicare beneficiaries with low-cost options for comprehensive health care coverage including added benefits and personal support to help maintain their health,” said United Healthcare Medicare and Retirement CEO Jack Larsen. “With a broader service area and new plan options, more beneficiaries than ever will have access to Care Improvement Plus plans designed to manage their individual needs, including specialized services provided at no additional cost to help ensure they get the right care at the right time.” Care Improvement Plus is adding 160 new counties to its service area in 2013 including

132 new counties across Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, New Mexico, New York and Wisconsin, which the plan first added to its service area in 2012. About 250,000 Medicare beneficiaries across 28 counties in Alabama, Nebraska, North Carolina and Pennsylvania will gain access to Care Improvement Plus plans in 2013. This is the first time Care Improvement Plus is offering its plans in each of these four states. A variety of Care Improvement Plus plan options including its suite of Chronic Condition Special Needs Plans will be available in these new service areas, providing Medicare beneficiaries with access to the plans’ added benefits, services and innovative model of care aimed at helping people live healthier lives. Renewed Commitment to Affordability and Stability; New $0 Premium Plan Care Improvement Plus’ 2013 Medicare Advantage plan options are designed to provide Medicare beneficiaries with affordable coverage and access to high-quality benefits and services. For the first time, Care Improvement Plus will offer traditional Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans with a $0 monthly premium. Plan members will continue to have access to additional benefits and services, such as: vision, dental and transportation benefits; a care provider network that provides access to any Medicare-approved care provider that ac-

cepts payment from the plan with no referral required for Medicare-covered services; $0 co-pays for important preventive care services; and Part D prescription drug benefits at no additional premium cost. As a result of legislative changes to Part D prescription drug coverage, Medicare beneficiaries in the coverage gap will pay 47.5 percent of the total cost for brand name prescriptions and 79 percent of the total cost for generic prescriptions through Care Improvement Plus’ 2013 plans. New Special Needs Plans for Beneficiaries with Chronic Lung Disorders Also new for 2013, about 570,000 Medicare beneficiaries across the span of Care Improvement Plus’ 15-state service area will be eligible to enroll in the plan’s new Chronic Conditions Special Needs Plan for people diagnosed with chronic lung disorders such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. According to recent data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 15 percent of Medicare beneficiaries age 65 and older suffer from one or more chronic lung disorders. These plans join Care Improvement Plus’ existing Chronic Conditions Special Needs Plans designed to support Medicare beneficiaries with diabetes and/or heart failure. “Ninety-three percent of surveyed plan members say Care Improvement Plus has

helped them better understand their health issues and get more involved in their health care,” said Larsen. “With the addition of these new Special Needs Plans, we will focus on leveraging our specialized benefits and services to empower Medicare beneficiaries with COPD and other chronic lung disorders to better manage their symptoms and reduce their risk of future complications.” Innovative Model of Care Offers Personalized Services Care Improvement Plus’ innovative model of care helps ensure that plan members receive care for their individual health needs, which is especially important for medically underserved Medicare beneficiaries, including those with chronic conditions such as chronic lung disorders, diabetes and heart failure, and those with both Medicare and full Medicaid. With the

support of no-cost services included in the care management model, plan members indicate they have been able to manage their health and improve their quality of life. Featured services include: annual inhome visits with a licensed health care practitioner through United Healthcare’s House Calls service; nurse care management services including coaching and a 24/7 nurse hotline; medication monitoring and personalized counseling with plan pharmacists; transitional support following hospital stays; and assistance with accessing social support services. In a recent study, Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Care Improvement Plus with chronic conditions experienced seven percent more primary care visits and nine percent fewer hospitalizations compared with similar beneficiaries enrolled in Original

Medicare. Care Improvement Plus’ care management approach is an example of how health plans can manage and coordinate care to help improve health outcomes, bolster primary care and reduce health care spending. Care Improvement Plus is open for enroll-

ment now for services effective Jan. 1, 2013. People interested in learning more about Care Improvement Plus may call 1-800711-1656, TTY: 711, seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., or visit www.careimprovementplus.com for more information.

ON SEPT. 22, THE CHICAGO BASED GROUP GLOW conducted their inaugural live presentation of their Get up and Glow program following the 16th birthday celebration of Megan Garlits in Wabash. Megan and her sister Sierra are huge fans of the four founders of the group, Julia Albain, Denise Donovan, Lauren Lopez and Jaime Lyn Beatty, who re also member of Team Starkid, which is also based in Chicago and has performed internationally. Sierra had initially contacted Starkids to see if they could send something special for Megan’s birthday. After numerous emails over a period of a few weeks, three of the founders of Glow agreed to travel to Wabash and present their new program following the birthday party. They were looking for a venue for their presentation and felt this would be perfect. Lauren Lopez had a prior commitment and was unable to attend. Approximately 25 girls took part in the program, which was extremely well received. Pictured are (from left) Jaime Lyn Beatty, Megan Garlits, Julia Albain and Denise Donovan. (photo provided)

First graders offer Thanksgiving Turkey recipes... continued fron the front page

Put the pan in the oven at 100°. Cook it for 100 days. When it is done, it is going to be really, really, REALLY, R-E-A-L-L-Y brown! Take it out of the oven and stand by the turkey. Get some people to help you wave your hands really fast over the turkey until it is just warm, not hot. Pass out the forks to the 91 people who came to eat with you, and eat! Madyson Garrett Sometimes you can catch a turkey in the woods. Maybe if the turkey needed a drink it would be by a pond. Make a trap with a net and if the turkey steps on a squishy thing, the turkey will get swooped up in the net. Then cut the turkey from the tree but keep him in the net so he won’t run away. Walk home and have your dad carry the turkey. If it pecks you on the back, then hold the turkey away from. Take the net off of the turkey, tape the turkey’s beak so he can’t peck at you. Take off all the feathers, but not the skin. The turkey will say, “Oh, NO! I am going to be cooked, because it’s Thanksgiving Day!” Throw the feathers out because birds have “aseases”. Next, you stuff the turkey with mushy stuff. Put the mushy stuff in a squirter and squirt it into the turkey’s beak. Put it in a pan and put oil on the pan because if you don’t it will just stick. That would be bac. You are ready to cook the turkey for 10 minutes in the oven at 70°. The oven goes “ding” when it is done. The turkey will be all brown, but not black. That would be bad because it would be burned. Get the table ready and put some delicious food, stuff like cupcakes, on the table. Get the forks, spoons, and knives and call everybody for Thanksgiving dinner! Be sure to put a mat under the plates because the turkey juice might get on the table. Kameron Garriott Go and get a turkey from Walmart because they have turkeys there. You won’t see the turkey’s head or feet or arms because they chopped them off. Choose the giantest one because there’s a lot of people at your house to eat turkey. It will cost probably like

$50 for a big giant turkey. Go home and get ready to cook it. Cut the tail off so you don’t taste feathers and bone! Put seasoning sauce on it, like what you put on potatoes. It will be red and I forget what other color. Set the turkey in the stove carefully so it don’t fall. Make the stove VERY hot, like 10°. Cook it for 10 minutes. Look at the turkey 5 times while it is cooking to see if it is burning. You hear the “beep” when it’s done. Bring it out for all the family to eat. Some turkeys are circles but this turkey will look like where the hands and head used to be. Tristan Hoffman Get a turkey at your grandpa’s house. He has a woods. Usually they are down in the creek to drink water. When he runs, shoot him with your gun. He will fall over and then your grandpa will cut the turkey open to get the guts out before you eat it. Carry the turkey home with gloves on so you don’t get the turkey germs. You could get sick. Get a bucket of water and put the turkey in it for a minute or so. It will get washed off. Make sure you do it outside so the house doesn’t get wet. Set the turkey on the grill to cook. Put hot sauce on the turkey to make it taste better. Cook it for 20 minutes. A done turkey is brownish. Keep cooking if the turkey is not ready. Get the table set up and put a tablecloth over it. Get fruit and put more chairs around the table. Get drinks. We like Sprite. Cut up the turkey and put it on the table. Get those food clippers to pick up the turkey pieces and eat! Lucas Krom Get a turkey at a farm. The turkeys are in a pen. Choose the biggest turkey. Jump in the pen and pull the turkey out. Put the turkey in the back seat and buckle him in so he don’t bother your dad while he’s driving. Take the turkey home. Take the turkey out of your car and go into the house. Have your dad cut off the turkey’s feet so he don’t walk around the house. Grab a knife

and carve the feathers off of the turkey. Clean the turkey with a rag. Put some spices on the turkey. I like pepper and salt. Pick up the turkey and put it in a dish. Then put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 20°. When the turkey is cooking set up the table. The microwave will “set off ” when the turkey is done. It will look brown. Now it is time to eat it. Kyler Light Buy a turkey from the store. Walmart is the best place to buy a turkey, because they taste better. Go to the food section and there are some turkeys there. I had a little bit of trouble, but I found the right one, a BIG one, just what my family wanted. They are frozen, so you have to thaw it with really hot water. Then you cut it all up and wash away all the blood. Pull out the guts. Put some spices on the turkey. They are flavor for turkey. Put some salt on and it’s ready to pop right into the oven. Put the turkey on a metal tray first. Cook the turkey for 7 minutes at a warm temperature, like 68°. Make the stuffing. Get a big bowl and put warmish-cold water for moisture. Put in some flour, too. Cook the stuffing by boiling on top of the stove. Keep an eye on the stuffing so it doesn’t explode. That wouldn’t be good. You would have to make another batch. When the turkey is done cut a hole in the bottom of it. Get some gloves to keep the blood away from your hands and shove the stuffing right into the hole. Cut all the bones out. When you find the wishbone, take it out. Lay the turkey out for all the people you invited to Thanksgiving Day party. Madison Hall Go to the store and buy the turkey for Thanksgiving to eat. I go to Krogers and they are by the cold meat. Choose a fat one because you want to have a fat turkey to eat on Thanksgiving. Pay $5 for the turkey and go home. When you get home put the turkey in the freezer so it can stay nice and fresh. On Thanksgiving Day take the turkey out of the freezer. To unthaw the turkey, you have to set it out on the

counter to breathe air for 7 minutes. Unwrap it and put it in a cooking pot. Put butter on the turkey with a knife so it will taste better. Plug in the cooking pot and then cook it for 5 minutes. It will bubble when it cooks. If it isn’t bubbling that means it isn’t cooking very fast. That would be a BIG mistake! If the turkey is done it will be all crispy, but if it isn’t done it won’t have the crispies on it. Put a little bit more butter on it and set it on a plate so it can cool down. You might have to have something with it like baked beans, macaroni, green beans, and for dessert, cherry cake and chocolate pudding and chocolate cake. And you might have puppy chow with it, too. That’s stuff that you make with squares and it has powder all over it. You make it out of vanilla,

chocolate chips and powder and peanut butter. You can have ice cream with the cake. After you get done eating, you can play and then go bowling. After that you’ll have to go to bed because it will be getting very late. Brayan Livesay Find a turkey in the woods. Look where there’s a whole bunch of weeds and trees. They stay there. Run and grab the turkey by the legs so he can’t

move. Take him to your grandpa’s. Then show it to your grandpa and he will take off the turkey’s feathers and skin the turkey. Put the turkey in a big bowl and wash it with a wet rag, but no soap! If you eat soap it takes YUCKY! One time my brother put soap in a cup in the shower and I drank it. YUCK!!!! Get a round pan that has sides on it and put the turkey on it. Put spice stuff on the

turkey, like seasonal stuff. Cook the turkey at your papaw’s house outside on the grill. If the turkey is too big for the grill, just cut the tail off. Then it will fit. Leave it on the grill for 20 minutes. Have papaw stay and watch the turkey. He should flip it over 4 times with the thing that you poke into the turkey. It has two points on it. If you drop the turkey on the ground, go find another one. Get a big plate and (continued on page 31)

is 1-800-419-1326. Because of staffing costs, a $3 fee will be charged for each CheckIN telephone transaction. Payment can be made by Visa or Mastercard only. The online system and on-site check stations remain free options for hunters to check in game. To access CheckIN Game online, visit checkingame.dnr.IN. gov. Before using the phone-in option,

hunters should have their customer ID and all harvest information ready. Customer ID numbers can be found on any hunting, fishing or trapping license. Lifetime license holders and those who do not have their customer ID will be able to look up their number through the phone system. Once a transaction is completed, hunters will be given a confirmation num-

ber, which must be written on their temporary transportation tag. “The new phone-in option allows hunters who do not have Internet access the ability to checkin their game from home or in the field with a mobile phone,” said Mark Reiter, Division of Fish and Wildlife director. “This makes check-in easy and convenient for all hunters.”

Hoosiers help provide supplies to thousands affected by Hurricane Sandy

DONATIONS HAVE EXCEEDED the space available within the Long Beach, N.Y., ice arena as Hoosiers have sent clothing, blankets, and other items to the area affected by Hurricane Sandy. (photo provided)

Long Beach, N.Y., distribution center unable to accept further supplies; financial donations preferred

LONG BEACH— Donations have poured into the East Coast from across the U.S. following Hurricane Sandy and the Nor’easter that devastated the region. A team of emergency management professionals from Indiana is helping local New York officials manage and distribute the donations to those in need. The response was so great in the City of Long Beach, N.Y., that

donated goods exceeded the capacity of Long Beach City Hall. Arrangements were made to move all volunteer coordination efforts and donation collection and distribution to the city’s ice arena. At this time, the ice arena is unable to accept any further supplies. In addition to a larger location, part of the Indiana Incident Management Team (IIMT) in the city of Long Beach, is now helping manage donation distribution and volunteer coordination. On Nov. 9, the Indiana Incident Management Team

Jesus Flores Nine hours old Nov. 12, 2012

Jesus Flores, 9-hours old, North Manchester, died at 12:47 p.m., Monday, Nov. 12, 2012 in Parkview Regional Hospital, Fort Wayne. He was born at 3:41 a.m. Nov. 12, 2012 in Huntington to Lino and Becky (Adams) Flores who survive in North Manchester. In addition to his parents he is survived by one sister, Karla Flores, North Manchester; maternal grandparents, Dyrs and Eva (Adams) Owens, Silver Lake; paternal grandparents, Raquel Flores and Javier Lopez, Aguascalientes, Mexico. Graveside services were held Nov. 16 at Oaklawn Cemetery, North Manchester. Pastor J. P. Freeman officiated. To send a private condolence to the Flores family, visit www.mckeemortuary.com.

(IIMT) was deployed to relieve the existing Indiana team in Long Beach. The 37-person team includes public safety professionals from the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS), Indiana University, IDHS Districts 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, and 10, Indiana Department of Natural Resources and Indiana State Police. Officials say the

response to the disaster has been tremendous—including as many as 70 truckloads of clothing. However, the needs of survivors in the affected areas are still great. Financial donations can be made at www.longbeachny.org or sent to City of Long Beach Relief, 1 West Chester Street, Long Beach, N.Y., 11561. Financial donations to the affected

city or to a trustworthy relief organization are the best way to help disaster survivors. Financial donations are more flexible than goods and more easily able to keep up with rapidly fluctuating needs. At the Ice Arena Distribution Center, an average of 175 volunteers are assisting about 600 survivors of Hurricane Sandy every day, distributing food, personal hygiene items, cleaning supplies and other essential items. Officials estimate that so far, more than 8,000 individuals from Long Beach and from the surrounding communities of Brooklyn, Freeport, Oceanside and Rockaway have visited the center for supplies. The mission of the Indiana Incident Management Team (IIMT) supports local officials in preserving the safety of the public and emergency responders, while providing for the protection of property and the community environment. The Indiana IMAT is anticipated to remain in Long Beach, NY over the Thanksgiving Holiday to assist the local residents. The team is expected to

return to Indiana sometime over the

weekend of Nov. 2425.

Flack, Brunn power past Mississinewa

Flack, Brunn combine for 29 points in 45-33 win

The Manchester Squires basketball team picked up its first win of the young season with a 45-33 win over Mississinewa Friday. The Squires got the start they were looking for when on the first possession forced a five second call and immediately scored on a Bekah Brunn bucket. Kayla Flack would then hit back-to-back buckets and two minutes into the game the Squires led 7-0. The Indians would cut the lead to 7-4 before the Squires would roll again. Madison Isbell would connect and was followed by back-to-back buckets from Brunn. Autumn Brewer would score with 52.7

left and Brunn capped off the 10-0 run to lead 17-4 after one. The pace slowed a little to start the second quarter as Mississinewa cut the lead to 20-12 with 1:13 remaining. Sydney Snep would stop the Indian momentum and was backed up by a Brunn bucket to end the quarter and Manchester led 24-13 at the half. Manchester would score the first five points of the third quarter to build the lead to 29-13 behind Brewer and Manchester’s 2012 season leading scorer Kayla Flack. Flack would pump in seven points in the quarter, while Brewer added five and the Lady Squires were cruising 40-21 after three. Both offenses went stagnant to start the

fourth quarter, with neither team scoring for two and a half minutes. Kayla Flack finally got the lid off the bucket as the Squires milked the clock, winning their first game 4533. Kayla Flack led in scoring with 15. Bekah Brunn had 14, Autumn Brewer scored seven, and Kalene Freshour added four. The junior varsity also picked up a win over Mississinewa, topping the Indians 3526. Keali Carter led with 10 points, eight rebounds and three steals. Tiffany Johnson had eight points and five rebounds. Kaitlyn Parrett had five points, five rebounds and three steals.

WABASH SENIOR SHEA BEAUCHAMP RECENTLY SIGNED a letter of intent to play baseball for Huntington University in 2014. Beauchamp helped lead the Apaches to a 17-12 record last season and batted .432 with five home runs and 32 RBIs. “The scholorship offer was great and I have a chance to come in and play right away,” Beauchamp said about choosing Huntington University. He also added he played on the campus over the summer and enjoyed visiting the campus. Huntington Head Coach Mike Frame added: “Shea was a big sign for Huntington. Other potential players were asking if Shea is going to sign and this will help draw them. Shea will make an immediate impact, as I plan to play him at first base and bat cleanup.” Beauchamp plans on studying psychology.

Knights outsize, outdo Northwestern Southwood’s bigs propel Knights to first win of the season by J.D. Sparks Southwood’s girls basketball team displayed its biggest asset Friday evening in a 59-47 road win at Northwestern. The Knights’ 6-foot2 center Katie Stouffer and 6-foot forward/center Anna Marie Farlow helped Southwood dominate the boards. In fact, Southwood outrebounded the Tigers 50-33. Stouffer grabbed 15 and Farlow hauled in eight. “(Our rebounding was) incredible—we out-rebounded them by almost 20,” said Southwood Head Coach Dallas Duggan. “We have three 6footers (including 6foot-1 Mollie Harnish). It’s difficult to shoot over the top of them and they are long to get into the passing lanes. I think Harnish has four or five tipped passes. Our rebounding, though, was definitely key.” Southwood struggled early with the Tigers’ full-court pressure, however. With around 6:30 left in the second quarter, Northwestern senior Addison Dubbels turned a steal into a bucket put the Tigers

up 21-13. But Southwood’s offense began to find its rhythm. A pair of Farlow free throws sparked a 14-2 Knight scoring run as Southwood took a 2723 lead. Dubbels’s 3pointer with 15 seconds left in the half put Northwestern within two at 27-25. Knight standout senior Sarah White scored seven of her team-high 21 points during that span. “We didn’t lie down and just take the loss,” Duggan said. “We were finally able to attack their press. If they attack us on one end, we want to attack them on the other.” Southwood started to pull away from the Tigers in the third quarter. The Knights registered eightstraight points, including back-toback rebound put backs from Stouffer and White, to go up 4130 with 3:18 on the clock. Northwestern fought to 45-41 after an Olivia McClure triple began the fourth quarter. That’s as close as the Tigers would get, however. Kaley Harness recorded a pair of buckets over the next one minute and 40 seconds as the Knights added to its lead, upping it to 51-43. “Kaley had some big buckets for us

We’re improving.” Southwood held Northwester to four points over the final six minutes, securing the 59-47 victory. White led Southwood with 21 points, seven rebounds, seven

In addition to her 15 boards, Stouffer scored eight points, had two assists, a steal and five blocks. Harness scored eight and Harnish tallied four points. The 1-1 Knights

Haley Heath, who saw some varsity minutes, too, led the Knights with eight points and a pair each of assists and steals. Aleesha Phillips added seven points, four rebounds, two assists and four steals.

Murphy competes in All-Star game Southwood senior volleyball player Emily Murphy recorded five kills, three digs, seven service points, an ace, a pair of assists and a solo block for the North during the North-South All-Star game over the weekend. The North fell, however, 30-32, 25-20, 15-11.

Norse girls pick up win Northfield’s girls basketball team improved to 2-1 after edging Eastbrook 38-36 on Nov. 14 at home. Sydney Eltzroth led the way with 15 points, five rebounds and four steals. Sidney Reed added seven points, eight rebounds, an assist and two steals. Cherish Leming ad nine points, two boards and a steal. The Norse JV moved to 3-0 on the season after a 36-26 victory. Payton Thompson scored a team-high 19 points. Marlee Stefanatos chipped in seven points, four rebounds, four assists and two steals.

DAR November meeting

The monthly meeting of the Frances Slocum Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) was held on Tuesday, Nov. 13, at the North Manchester Public Library. Regent Jean Wright welcomed new member Linda Jervis into the chapter. DAR is enjoying its third highest increase in membership this year since it was founded Oct. 11, 1890. Regent Wright told members that all further meetings held in Wabash will be at St. Matthews United Church of Christ, 1717 North Wabash Street. All meetings begin at 7 p.m.

The guest speaker was Miriam Carnahan who is a member of the LaGrange DAR chapter. The program was entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Journey to Jamestown.â&#x20AC;? It was based on a true story of Anne Burras Layton who was born in 1590, her daughter Virginia Layton Smith who was born in 1609 and Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter, Anne Smith Rolfe who was born in 1657. Anne Burras was an early English immigrant to Virginia. She was the first English woman to marry in the New World. She arrived in Jamestown on Sept. 30, 1608, on the Mary and Margaret, the

ship bringing the Second Supply. She served as a 14-year-old maid to Mrs. Thomas Forrest. Mrs. Forrest died soon after their arrival. Three months after her arrival she married Thomas Layton. Mr. Layton had seen an advertisement in London looking for folks to start a new colony here. It was an

opportunity to make money and own land. He sailed with the Virginia Company and landed on a small island they named Jamestown after their king. Virginia was the first child of English colonists to be born in the Jamestown colony. Mrs. Carnahan told of the many struggles of the three very coura-

geous women throughout their lives. The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, Jan. 8 at St. Matthews United Church of Christ, Wabash, Indiana. The DAR National Headquarters complex occupies an entire city block near the White House and includes three adjoin-

ing buildings, two of which are Registered National Historic Landmarks. The DAR library is one of the largest genealogical research centers in the United States. You can learn more about DAR membership by visiting the DAR website www.dar.org or by calling 765-981-2612 or 260-563-4661.

THE NORTH MANCHESTER Congregational Christian Church will host a community breakfast, which will benefit the Gary and Krista Cagle family. The church hopes to help offset the medical costs related to Krista’s breast cancer. (photo provided) struggled to function. After a month long stay in the hospital where Krista fought for her life she was moved to the L u t h e r a n Rehabilitation Hospital to begin the journey back as she relearned basic skills - how to walk and write and to regain her strength. In Nov. 2011 she returned

home to family and continued her treatments. In March 2012, Krista underwent a double mastectomy when they discovered another stage 2 mass in her breast. A third surgery in May to remove scar tissue and in Nov. 2012 she had her fourth surgery as she was finally healthy enough to begin the first phase of breast reconstruction.

Diabetes and chemotherapy treatments continue to take a toll on Krista’s body, but she is strengthened by the support of family and friends and her faith that God is in control. Her husband Gary and her mother Linda Winger have spent many days at the hospital while friends and family served as shuttle bus and caretakers for their sons Justin and

Andrew. The Community Breakfast committee is honored to donate the profits from the December breakfast to the Cagle family as they continue to put their lives and family back together. Donations may be received by the Congregational Christian Church Benevolence Fund for the family. Contact the church at 982-2882 for more information.

home. Cut the turkey up so you can get the ham out of it. Put the turkey in the sink with hot water to clean it. Have your mom help you and do it together. Put some pepper on the turkey, Six shakes is just right. Put two scoops of hot sauce on the turkey, too. Put the turkey in the stove and cook it for a long time, about 21 minutes at 29°. You know the turkey is done when it dings. The turkey doesn’t ding, the stove does. The turkey will be hot and brown. Take the turkey out of the stove and cut it up into pieces. Make some chicken in the stove, too. Then all of the family eats it. Donovan Parker Get a turkey at the restaurant. Put it in a pan. Put butter on it. Put it in the oven. Cook it at 325°till it is golden brown. Then eat it! With the turkey you can have cheese, applesauce, dressing, sweet potatoes, baked beans, mashed potatoes, biscuits, Kentucky fried chicken, and pumpkin pie.

Quintenn Vigar Go to the woods and get a turkey. Look where there’s a bunch of trees because they hide there. You can put a tent there and hide yourself and listen for the turkeys to gobble. If you hear them gobble you know one will be coming. Get ready to catch it. Stand close to the door of the tent and when you see something with feathers coming you have to try to get it. Shoot it with a rifle or a shotgun. Take it home and cut the legs off it. Take all the feathers off with a knife. Wash the turkey in the bathtub. If you don’t have a bathtub that’s big enough, get 2 fold-up tables and put them together outside. Use the garden hose to wash it off. Put barbeque sauce on the turkey. Cook the turkey in the oven for 4 hours at 350. Set the table and when you are done you can do whatever you want. When the timer rings for the turkey get the oven mitt and get the turkey out. Take the bones out of the turkey and put it on a tray. Set it in the

middle of the table and when the people come over to eat, say your prayer and EAT! Hannah Wilson Go to get a turkey at Walmart. It’s in the aisle with all the meat. You pick up the biggest one because you have a big family. Go pay for it. $5 will be enough money. Take the turkey home. You have to cut the turkey and make a hole in the turkey’s back so you can stuff carrots in it. Give the turkey a little shot to take out all the poison. Put the turkey on the grill outside in the garage. Cook the turkey for 1 hour. Check the turkey once in a while to make sure it’s not burnt. While it’s cooking have the family come over. Your uncle can help your dad with the turkey. The turkey is done when it looks like it is not alive. Now it’s time to eat the turkey so you have to cut it up. Make enough pieces for your family. Have your mommy make some pumpkin pie. And then, it’s my favorite part of ALL!!!! Start EATING!!!!!

The United States remains the world’s corn export king, although its empire is shrinking, says a Purdue University agricultural economist. Foreign nations that previously relied on the U.S. for corn are growing more of their own or buying from other producing countries, said Philip Abbott. He predicted the trend would continue even if market conditions improve and U.S. corn production increases. “The U.S. has historically been a very important part of the international corn market,” Abbott said. “Prior to the 2007-08 food crisis and spike in commodity prices, the U.S. exported well over half the amount of corn that entered international markets. Since then, the high

prices have caused the rest of the world to expand their production and become more selfsufficient. “Even if we get bigger corn crops in the future, it’s likely that the demand in foreign markets will not soon recover to the level that it once reached.” U.S. Department of Agriculture statistics bear that out. In the 2007-08 marketing year, the U.S. exported 2.4 billion bushels of corn. The USDA estimates just 1.1 billion bushels of U.S. corn will be exported in the 2012-13 marketing year. What has happened to U.S. corn exports, and why might the U.S. not claim 50 percent of future world corn markets? There are a few reasons, Abbott said. First, is ethanol.

The federal Renewable Fuel Standard mandates that gasoline sold in the U.S. be blended with ethanol. This year, the law requires oil companies blend 13.2 billion gallons of ethanol with the gasoline they produce. Next year, the blending requirement increases to 13.8 billion gallons. Corn is the primary feedstock of ethanol, and 5.5 billion bushels of U.S. corn were used for that purpose in 2011-12. “Roughly 40 percent of the corn that’s produced in this country is used in ethanol, although some of it is later used as distillers grain for livestock feed,” Abbott said. “That’s up from about 10-12 percent five years ago. The amount of corn that makes up the increase is more

than we export.” Because the law requires that ethanol be produced, there is less corn available for other non-ethanol users, including foreign buyers and U.S. livestock producers. The high demand for corn, coupled with the partially regulated market, has pushed corn prices higher. Secondly, the U.S. has not kept up with many other nations that have significantly increased their corn acreage. Although U.S. farmers have shifted acreage away from other crops and into corn, competing nations and customers have significantly increased their area planted. “We haven’t expanded overall planted area like the rest of the world. Our acreage is basically flat,” Abbott said. Since the late 1990s, South America has boosted crop acreage 53 percent. The nations that make up the former Soviet Union are growing crops on 24 percent more acres, with acreage up 13.4 percent in sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania. By contrast, crop acreage in the European Union is off 4 percent. U.S. corn exports were further hurt by the summer drought. According to the USDA, domestic corn production is expected to be down 13 percent from 2011, at 10.7 billion bushels. That would represent the lowest corn production volume since 2006. For those reasons, the outlook for U.S. corn exports going forward is less positive than a few years ago, Abbott said. “We’ve tried to accommodate the export markets by working to increase production, but we haven’t managed to do that,” he said. “We’ve had to keep feed use flat and watch exports shrink. “All the hard work we did to build export markets has been hurt by the high commodity prices of the last four or five years. As a result, the world has figured out ways to meet their own needs. And with a couple of exceptions like China buying more soybeans, we’re probably going to see weaker export demand in the future.”
